I've seen a problem similar to the include file, but with just
running rsync in the following mode copying from one directory
to another;
rsync -avo --delete --stats /dir1 /dir2
I was using version 2.3.1 for the longest time with no problem, and
I just recently moved to 2.4.6. If my directories have more
then 61,000 files in them, the process just hangs. Now, in order
to use 2.4.6, I must use a script that chops the update process into
smaller then 60,000 file chunks.

Classification:
How do I go about "registering" this bug with the include file.
It would be good get this bug fixed as I would like to be able to back to
2.4.6 (or whatever) as it is faster and it has bandwidth limiting.
Will let you know the results of the testing.
Cheers

No, I don't. It probably depends on a lot of variables.

What I'd like to see is a case that might make the biggest difference with
and without the optimization:
- probably use the LAN
- the largest number of files that you can get to work
- small files
- time the whole run with the "time" command, CPU time and elapsed time
- I don't know about daemon vs rsh, but the daemon leaves the most
under rsync's control so that may be preferable
